TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: i 1

Be it known that I, LEWIS W. SVHAEFFER, of West Milton, in the countyofMiarnhin the State of Ohiin` have invented a new and improved Ohurn;and I do hereby declare that the followingis a full and exact descrip#tion thereof; reference `being had to the accompanying drawings, Vand to`the letters of reference inarked thereon.4 h

The nature of my invention consists in the construction of two dashes ofpeculiar form; one revolving Y within the other, and in an oppositedirection. V A:

Figure 1 represents a perspective view of the churn, with a portion outaway to show the interior.

Figure 2 represents al transverse section` 'i The same letters occurringon the different figures refer to like parte` h i A represents thevessel, which, in a practical form; is oorrst-rncte'd as the ordinaryBarrel-charms, with this i l exception, that an open-ing is left in thetop-of snlcient size to admit of the removal 'of the dashes. .To theright end is attached a. frame, D, which supports the end of the shaft'E and -the axle of `the spnwheel m. To the shaft-the cog-wheel o and thearin not' the dash are attached. The cog-wheels, moves loosely .enthis`t shaft; and to the hub of it,'on the inside of the churn, is attache-dthe arnx s of the external'idash. The hub of the wheel n has a bearingin the ohurnhend. 'To the end oi' the shaft is attached the crank GtYThe axle-7F has e` thread cut npon it, and is screwed intoths left-handhead, and forms a bearing forlthe dashes. 'Thertran'sverse section, fig.2, shows therarms' '1- and s; and to each arm are attachedv four wings Bto the external dash, and wings C to the internal dash. The position 'ofthe two wings on'the end of each of the arms, one is exactly the reverseof the other and the line of' them does not cross the axis, but crossesabout thirty degrees within the axis of motion, or at a point aboutone-third the distance from the axis to theperiphery-` As these Winge`are arranged 'the cream is thrown alternatelyto and from the'centre,each wing successively changing the direetion of the cream. Where thewings are set on a line crossing the axis, the creatnis driven aroundthe interior of `the churn in front of the wings; and as the arrangementhere described admits the cream to `glide by par tially, rapidlychanging thedireeton, it is believed the churning. can be elected morereadily, and with less t poweaL than is otherwise done. I h i i What Iclaim as my invention, and'desire to Secure by Letters Patent, is 4 IThe arrangement of the several wings B and C on ths'arms r and s withreference to the vessel in the manner substantially as and for thepurpose speciied. i'
